1 Israel mite (hichu, Jacob chapate), ama insung mi cheh hin kipuija Egypt gam-sung'a apau toh kitollut ho min chu hicheng hi ahiuve:
La-ke ngamabizo amadodana kaIsrayeli afika eGibhithe loJakobe; afika, ileyo laleyo lomuzi wayo,
2 Reuben, simeon, Levi, Judah.
uRubeni, uSimeyoni, uLevi, loJuda,
3 Issachar, Zebulun, Benjamin
uIsakari, uZebuluni, loBhenjamini,
4 Dan, Naphtali, Gad chule Asher amaho cheng hi ahiuve.
uDani, loNafithali, uGadi, loAsheri.
5 Abonchauvin, Egypt gamsung'a Jacob chilhah chengse chu som sagi alhing'un chule Joseph vang agamsung'a ana um jingsa ahitai.
Njalo yonke imiphefumulo eyaphuma ekhalweni lukaJakobe yayiyimiphefumulo engamatshumi ayisikhombisa. Kodwa uJosefa wayeseGibhithe.
6 Phat chomkhat jouvin, Joseph le asopi chengse athigam tauvin, hiche khang mite se chu akichai tan ahi.
UJosefa wasesifa labo bonke abafowabo, lalesosizukulwana sonke.
7 Ahinlah ason achilhah teu, Israel chate chun tu le cha tampi anei tauvin apung lheh jeng un, ahung hatdoh cheh cheh un gamsung pumpi ahin lodim tauve.
Njalo abantwana bakoIsrayeli bazalana, baba banengi, banda, baba lamandla kakhulukazi, ilizwe laze lagcwaliswa yibo.
8 Egypt gamsunga chun Joseph chung chang thule ana toh ho hephalou leng thah khat thaneina ahung chang tan ahi.
Kwasekuvela inkosi entsha phezu kweGibhithe eyayingamazi uJosefa.
9 Amapa chun amite henga thu aseijin, “Vetem'un! Israel mite hi eiho sang'in apung'un chule eiho sang'in ahat lheh jeng tauve.
Yasisithi esizweni sayo: Khangela, isizwe sabantwana bakoIsrayeli sinengi, futhi silamandla kulathi.
10 Amaho hi apunbe lou na diuvin, tohgon khat nei tauhite. Achuti louva ahile hung hatdoh untin, chule gal hung um taleh, imelma teu ahin panpi diu eihin dou'uva gamsunga kon'a jamdoh ding ahiuve,” ati.
Wozani, asisihlakanipheleni, hlezi sande, njalo kuzakuthi lapho kusehla impi, laso sihlangane lezitha zethu, silwe simelene lathi, senyuke sisuke elizweni.
11 Hijeh chun Egypt miten Isarel chate jouse soh in amangcha tauvin, achung'uva toh vaipo mikhanse tah tah ho apan sah un, chutobang bolgim na soh natoh akon'a chu suhnem ding akinem'un, namphu chang'in lengpa thilkhol na ding Pithom leh Rameses khopi chu asah sah uvin ahi.
Ngakho bamisa phezu kwaso izinduna zesibhalo ukusihlupha ngemithwalo yabo. Njalo samakhela uFaro imizi eyiziphala, iPithoma leRamesesi.
12 Ahinlah Egypt mite'n amaho asuhgim chan'un apungbe uvin akithejal cheh jo tauvin ahi, Egypt mite chu kichat nan aum jo tauvin ahi.
Kodwa kwathi ekusihlupheni kwaso kwang'khona sisanda, kwang'khona sisabalala. Ngakho banengwa ngabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
13 Chutah chun Egypt miten Israel mite chu ngailut na beihel'in thohgim hahsa athohsah uvin na atohsah un ahi.
Njalo amaGibhithe abasebenzisa abantwana bakoIsrayeli ngochuku,
14 Aki manchah na jouse uva gimna alhun sah un, bon ngan achilsah un, leilhang asemsah un, loujaova natoh jouse atohsah un, atoh nalam jouseuva gimbolna achansah tauvin ahi.
aze enza impilo zabo zababa ngomsebenzi onzima, ngodaka langezitina, langawo wonke umsebenzi emasimini; ngomsebenzi wabo wonke, ababenza bawenza ngodlakela.
15 Chuin Pharaoh, Egypt lengpan Hebrew mi nao dom teni Shiphrah leh Puah henga hiche thupeh hi aneiyin:
Inkosi yeGibhithe yasikhuluma lababelethisi amaHebherukazi, obizo lowokuqala lalinguShifira, lebizo lowesibili lalinguPhuwa,
16 “Hebrew numei hon nao anei uva nao dom'a napan teng lhon le, hichu phatah in vechil lhon in lang, naosen chu pasal ahileh natha lhon ding; numei ahile vang na hinghoi lhon ding ahi,” ati.
yasisithi: Nxa libelethisa amaHebherukazi, lapho libabona ezihlalweni zokubeletha, uba kuyindodana, liyibulale; kodwa uba kuyindodakazi, iyekeleni iphila.
17 Ama vang nao dom teni chun Pathen agin lhon jeh chun, lengpa thupeh chu anahsah lhon tapon, naosen pasal'a hungpeng lha ho jong chu ahinghoi lhon tan ahi.
Kodwa ababelethisi babemesaba uNkulunkulu, kabenzanga njengalokho yakhuluma kubo inkosi yeGibhithe, kodwa babayekela abafana baphila.
18 Chu in lengpan nao dom teni chu aheng'a akouvin, “Ipi jeh a hiche hi nabol lhon hitam?” tin adong'in, chule “Ipi jeh a naosen pasal ho chu, nahinghoi lhon ham?” tin ajah lhon'a aseiyin ahi.
Inkosi yeGibhithe yasibiza ababelethisi, yathi kubo: Liyenzeleni linto ukuthi liyekele abafana baphile?
19 Naodom tenin adonbut in “Hebrew numei ho hi Egypt numei hotoh abang pouve, amaho hi athoh hat un aheng'u akilhun masang'in amaho le ama ho beilam tah in ana ki doplhah jitauvin aphatchan kalap ji lhonpoi,” tin asei lhon'e.
Ababelethisi basebesithi kuFaro: Ngoba amaHebherukazi kawanjengabafazi bamaGibhithe; ngoba alamandla, umbelethisi engakafiki kuwo, asebelethile.
20 Pathen chu naodom teni din aphalheh jeng'in, Israelte chu apungbe cheh cheh tauvin ahile, athanei nau jong ahung hatdoh cheh cheh jeng tan ahi.
Ngalokhu uNkulunkulu wabenzela ababelethisi okuhle, labantu banda, baba lamandla kakhulu.
21 Naodom teni in Pathen agin lhon jeh chun, Pathen in amani chu ama a ama a ding cheh insung asem dohpeh lhon'in ahi.
Kwasekusithi, ngoba ababelethisi bamesaba uNkulunkulu, wabakhela imizi.
22 Chuin Pharaoh in amite jouse hiche thupeh hi aneiyin: “Hebrew naosen'a penglha pasal kiti phot chu Nile Vadung lam'a na pailhah jeng diu, ahin lah numeiya hung peng chengse vang chu hing hoiyun,” ati.
UFaro waselaya isizwe sakhe sonke esithi: Yonke indodana ezalwayo liyiphosele emfuleni, kodwa yonke indodakazi liyiyekele iphile.
